rolling

my life was rocking,
then it suddenly stood
still
the day the earth shook.

And then i rolled.
Round and round
and round.

I was removed from the rubble.
I have been saved from the mound.
I saw the light.

Unlike those continued to be
trapped beneath,
I am free.

But.

The dirt and grime and mud and filth
Have seeped inside my veins,
Yet to be cleansed
Yet to be washed away -

By time.
And space.

If i roll enough,
Will my life rock again?
